A) Variable = x ( miles Tim walked )
B) Tim walked X miles, Molly walked 4+x miles ( 4 more than Tim)
Equation: x + x+4 = 10
C) x +x+4 = 10
2x+4 = 10
2x =6
x = 3
D)
Tim walked 3 miles, Molly walked 7 miles
26.2. 0.13
------ ÷210. ------
210. 1
The amount miles ran in 1 minute is 0.13 miles.
I don't really know what to do for part b, I don't wanna give a fellow walking dead fan the wrong answer. ;)
BTW I'm a huge fan of the walking dead, that show is my life lml.
First find the slope:
m = ( 2 - 1 ) / ( 0 - (-1) ) = 1 / 1 = 1
Set up slope-intercept form:
y = 1·x +2
Now move x and y to the left and leave 2 on the right:
-x + y = 2
This is also equivalent to x - y = -2, so that just depends if you want your x coefficient to be positive or negative.
Answer:
Here, we have:
P(5 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C5 x (0.85)^5 x (1 - 0.85)^3 = 0.084
P(6 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C6 x (0.85)^6 x (1 - 0.85)^2 = 0.238
P(7 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C7 x (0.85)^7 x (1 - 0.85)^1 = 0.385
P(8 days snow in this 8 days) = 8C8 x (0.85)^8 x (1 - 0.85)^0 = 0.272
Add up those above, then the probability that it will snow AT LEAST five of those days in February:
P = 0.084+ 0.238 + 0. 385 + 0.272 = 0.979
Hope this helps!
